Sagewood Counselling & Consultancy
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
"Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." Arthur Ashe -
Although we have likely heard 'time heals all' in my personal journey as a trauma survivor and clinician, I have found that sometimes the most profound, transformative healing takes place within the safety of a supportive client-therapist relationship. Having authentic connections can impact our ability to fully engage ourselves in the work needed to create change .... and finding the right therapist can be the first step in accomplishing your counselling goals!
We all need support sometimes... I am honoured when people allow me to offer support & counselling during a season when anxiety or depression, grief or loss (including pregnancy loss), trauma or intra-personal distress becomes overwhelming, or when you simply feel it's the right time to work through some issues.
Authenticity, trust and respect are the values of my practice, and I am available to support you as you pursue the changes you want your life.
Please feel completely welcome to contact me to schedule a complimentary 15 minute telephone or video consultation so we can decide if working together is the right fit for your needs and my areas of expertise!

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
With over 20 years' counselling experience let me help you find the life you wish for. I am the proud mother of 4 sons (now adult) and grandmother to 8 (a mixture of girls and boys)! In addition to counselling I’ve worked in hospital administration, construction, business, advertising/marketing and farming. I also love to learn. Neurodiversity explains how our brains work and affect our behaviour and enables us to use tools to level the playing field so that you get the absolute most from your life. Explore the connection between your reactions and your past and the strong connection between the body, the psyche and the brain (including polyvagal work). (I also ballroom-dance at every opportunity!)

Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
My mission is to inspire deeper appreciation, emotional connection, intimacy, and attraction in your relationship.
As a Relationship Attraction Specialist and couples counsellor, I help couples understand the deeper patterns that influence love, connection, and desire. Many couples still care deeply for each other but find themselves stuck in cycles of conflict, distance, misunderstanding, or emotional disconnection.
It is incredibly rewarding to witness couples heal old wounds, strengthen their attachment, and rediscover the partnership they once shared. I love seeing couples move from treating each other as adversaries to becoming collaborators who support, understand, and choose each other.
I believe meaningful change happens in a safe, empathetic, and authentic counselling environment. My approach combines evidence-based couples therapy with warmth, compassion, and even humour when appropriate, creating a space where couples can feel comfortable being honest, vulnerable, and real.
I help couples navigate challenges involving communication, emotional safety, trust, intimacy, attraction, and relationship patterns that may have developed over time. Together, we can create a pathway toward greater understanding, connection, and a relationship that feels alive again.
Is Fear Stealing Your Happily Ever After?
Over time, every couple faces a choice:
Fear or Faith.
Fear can create:
• Distance
• Protection
• Blame
• Control
• Resentment
Faith can create:
• Courage
• Vulnerability
• Responsibility
• Compassion
• Connection
Fear + Distance = Loss of Attraction
Faith + Connection = Restored Attraction
Discover where fear, ego, and old patterns may be blocking connection — and how emotional safety, surrender, and faith can help restore balance, intimacy, and desire.
